Palestine and Israel | Wobbles all round |

Palestine and Israel | Wobbles all round | Economist.com: "JUST a month after the prime minister, Ariel Sharon, overturned Israeli politics by quitting the ruling Likud to form his own party, Kadima (�Forward�), a similar upheaval has hit the Palestinian Authority (PA). And to confuse matters still more, Kadima's own chances of keeping Mr Sharon in power after the election due in March took a knock after he suffered a stroke, albeit a minor one, on December 18th; his new party, after all, depends massively on the charisma of its 77-year-old leader."
